When will it end?

Now, who do I talk to about becoming President?

Big oil? CIA? The illuminati?

Interesting discussion guys. I'm on the fence, with a slight bias against gun ownership. The anti-depressant issue is personal to me, having lost a friend soon after he changed medication, and two other people I'm close to on them. The friend I lost jumped and took his own life, and he was always scared he was going to hurt someone (second hand knowledge, as he kept the depression to himself and a select few).

Another person, currently on an SSRI, can be in tears and shaking, yet nothing is wrong. While they certainly had problems before the medication, I do not understand what the anti-depressants achieve. Are they a temporary measure whilst the brain sorts itself out? It's certainly an area that so few understand (myself included), yet impose their ideas on it.

Theoretically temporary in most cases, and the problem seems worse among adolescents and young adults, but there are those where they work so well that they become a lifetime regimen; bipolars etc.

The problem is that there is no effective screening method to detect those who will go off when taking or quitting them.
